Wallpaper Generator - Dots and Lines
Wallpaper Generator - Dots and Lines
What's this?
This is a small tool I created because I couldn't find this kind of picture on a high enough resolution.
Thought I'd publish this for anyone who needs the same thing, either for a wallpaper or background.
How do I use it?
- Generator settings
The tool spawns a bunch of dots randomly around a point with a maximum radius.
It then draws a line between every 2 points within a max distance.
If you get a lot of points within a small radius, you're gonna get a lotta lines.
- Other settings
Everything else should be pretty self-explanatory, but let me know if anything isn't clear.
- Taking the photo
There is a big button at the bottom right corner of the window that will let you take a photo (without the hud) of your current view.
On the WebGL version, you can choose where to save it.
On the Windows standalone version, it's saved next to the .exe file, on the /Photos folder.
You can also scale the output image to get whatever resolution you need.
It's a good idea to over-size it and downscale it later to make up for the lack of anti aliasing (You'll end up getting a better result anyway).
It runs terribly!
Fair warning: This ain't optimized for browsers.
The WebGL version takes a few seconds to stabilize after it loads, but it is very limited performance-wise.
Keep down the number of dots/lines and use the cheap post fx (everything but DoF should be fine) (Fog can actually help with performance).
Otherwise, you can use the Windows standalone version and go crazier with it.
What's next?
I had fun creating this hud system using only code and actually got to learn how to make a WebGL build spit out an image file the user can download. So, if there's a need for other kinds of image generators that could use this format, I could make some more versions in the future.
If you got any ideas, let me know in the comments or you can talk to me on twitter.
